"To have taught a cultivation genius like Li Qian... your talent for teaching is truly astounding!"
Chu Xiran considered herself quite composed, but even so, she felt a little embarrassed by Xue Huaiyu's barrage of compliments.
She quickly waved her hands to clarify, "No, no, no. Li Qian's accomplishments are mainly due to his own talent and hard work. It really doesn't have much to do with me."
This was the truth, but Xue Huaiyu acted as if she hadn't heard, continuing to pour on the praise. "Talent is common, but those who can recognize it are rare. Student Li Qian is the talent, and you, Teacher Chu, are the one who discovered him…"
Listening to this string of sickeningly sweet compliments, Zhou Chubin, who stood beside them, couldn't help but frown.
'My decision to seek out Chu Xiran was definitely the right one.'
'The problem is… I ran into Xue Huaiyu.'
'If I let her keep buttering up Chu Xiran, all my hard work will have been for nothing.'
